Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Of course, don't you need a power source to keep it up there? Or is it in one of those balanced orbits like an L5?

Well, there has to be some kind of power supply anyway to make it work in the first place. Power in space is easy. All that solar energy.

Ah! Thanks for the reminder, DX.

I was thinking about this city under the water. With all the wacky technology at the Ancients' disposal, why wouldn't they use some sort of geothermal source to power the city? This whole running-out-of-power thing just seems silly.

Thrive to spite them

The burning question Atlantis left me with is--- where are they going to get food to feed all those people?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Other planets through the Stargate, and maybe fish in the sea?

Maybe one of the previously flooded areas will be a garden.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The city must have been getting food somehow when it was underwater.

Actually having the ancients run off by a group who's ships can be taken down by human portable weapons seems pretty silly to me. Also my subconcious refuses to admit that they looked human, it insists that they were insectiod a-la A Human Reaction....

Haven't seen anybody mention it here yet, but MILLENIUM (the Chris Carter series) is finally getting DVD release (first season, at least).

I'll be very happy when the (I think) second season comes out, and we get the Selfosophy episode (featuring the demise of Jose Chung).

Millenium was damned creepy at times.
